SocialOffset with Elena Gerstmann
With political tensions high in Washington, D.C., this March, associations and nonprofits face tough choices about where and how they host events. Enter SocialOffset, a groundbreaking initiative co-founded by Dr. Elena Gerstmann that empowers conference attendees to offset the economic impact of destination boycotts—without sacrificing meaningful participation.
In this timely episode of Association Chat, host KiKi L’Italien sits down with Dr. Gerstmann, Executive Director of INFORMS, to explore how SocialOffset is changing the conversation around ethical event planning. With a distinguished career in professional associations—spanning ASME, IEEE, and now INFORMS—Dr. Gerstmann brings unparalleled insight into the intersection of social responsibility, association leadership, and strategic decision-making.
Tune in on Tuesday, March 26, 2025, at 4 PM ET for a conversation that will challenge conventional wisdom and offer practical solutions for mission-driven organizations navigating today’s complex landscape.
